Great for 16-bit fans after a challenge. If you don't think your'e up to such retro effort, look elsewhere.

If anything, ReBirth is a harmless non-canonical sequel, and the flaws are pretty excusable -- no matter how you look at it, this is a good Gradius. But, like all the other recent, deliberately retro-styled games, it's definitely meant for people who had some sort of connection to the series in their youth.

I love the game in a fetish sort of way, in a way that I don't expect most people to relate with.
